Dark Side Models EPP Yak 55

Its time to start a build log on my new EPP Yak 55. This yak is designed to be an intermediate model. The Yak has great flight performance and feels much like a 3mm depron model on the sticks. The Yak is a great model for anyone looking to improve their own flying. Its the perfect model for people looking to break into the "low and slow" category of 3D.

The following will be a build log to help out with the construction of your EPP Yak. Before you start building you will need a nice flat table to work on, with out a flat surface to build your model on it will never come out straight. Also remember to take your time building the model, check your work with a square and leave the hack and dash attitude for chopping fire wood.

Glue suggestions: I use Bob Smith regular CA thick&thin to build my model. I only use the thin CA once the model is up off of my building table, EPP acts like a sponge and I have glued many of them to my work bench with thin.

CG location is aproz 1/2" behind the spar

For control throw I run aprox 45 degrees on everything with 80% expo on my epp planes(90-95 on my depron models)

Hey Terry,
I sent you a PM. For those of you looking to get a kit off me please send me a PM and we can work out the details. I plan on getting my website up in a few weeks but have just not had the time yet.
